Re: CNC12 v5.07 rev14 now available for download.

yeah if you bail mid homing cycle you can sometimes interrupt the cycle while the axes are un paired. there is a command that re-pairs them after it is square'd up in the home program...so, if you cancel out after it un-pairs but before it re-pairs then the machine is left in the un-paired state. a...

They also sell mirrors at the Dollar Store, those usually can help with identifying the root cause.

Re: CNC12 v5.07 rev14 now available for download.

Chris, I haven't run into this issue with G30 until this release. I did not set Z value at 20.8099, this is being written by the Wizard. My max Z travel is set to 14 7/8". 20.8099 is my machine Y value for the touch plate. Can you help identify where the 20.8099 Z value is being generated? The ...

Re: homing travels in wrong direction

I know you are getting frustrated but maybe it's time just to start from scratch with your settings. Break it into sections and get each section working correctly. Reduce your max speed settings until you get the correct operation of the machine to give yourself more time to react to hit cycle stop ...

Re: CNC12 v5.07 rev14 now available for download.

When I save the G30 settings to machine Z 0 then home the machine, that is when I notice the G30-Z value is being over-written with the G30 X value. If I save the G30 settings, then exit, restart CNC 12, then home, that is when I notice the over-write of G30-Z. It could also be over-written when zer...

Re: CNC12 v5.07 rev14 now available for download.

During re-calibrating my machine auto-square from prior issue, I discovered the following issue. I use G30 for my tool touch off plate to measure tool Z-Offset. The G-30 Z value is being over-written at what I presume machine homing or Z part zero to the Y value. I have been able to repeat the condi...

Re: Add on laser, need opinions

I ordered an Ox Laser module 5W from Amazon and made a mount on my dust shoe for easy mounting when I use it. Everything is packaged on the laser module (no additional boards/controls) so I just have a 4 pin molex near the spindle that I plug into the unit's pigtail, then use the mean-well power sup...
